194. Invitation to fight

. Shumilou.CoM.Shumilou.Co

In the palace of the king of Fushi City, Tutu, the short and fat Xiongnu Xiqi King in his fifties, sat on the soft couch and couldn't help but ask again: "Where did this Han army come from?" Which one's soldiers? ”

If it was another Huns, he might have learned about the characteristics of the soldiers and horses of Henan County from Yu Fuluo, but no one in the city could answer him.

According to the Xiongnu official system, under Shan Yu, the left and right virtuous kings, the left and right Gu Li kings are the most noble, these four kings are called "four corners", and there are left and right rì chase kings, left and right Wen Yu Wang, left and right gradually Wang second, called "hexagonal", "four corners" and "hexagonal" can only be held by Shan Yu's children, belonging to the royal family members. Then the kings of Kunxi, Hutu, Lutu, Oku, Lihan, Xiuxun, Outuo, Xiqi, Yougaolin, Gugunu, and Guyi were held by the nobles of the great clans.

Among all the Xiongnu thrones, King Xiqi is an alternative. When Emperor Zhao of the Western Han Dynasty, he sent Zhao Chongguo, the general of Zhonglang and the commander of Shui Heng, to conquer the Xiongnu, and captured the king of Western Qi at that time.

For a nation that prides itself on martial arts and is proud of its wolves, captured by the enemy, the halo of this king is undoubtedly disgraced and shamed by the people, since then, although the title of King of Xiqi has not been abolished, the incumbent is a victim of political struggle, and the nobles who have been snubbed and despised by the king of Shan or left and right are equivalent to exile.

This Western Qi king, Tu Tuben, was originally from the Qiulin clan of the Xiongnu clan, and one of his younger sisters was the Daque clan (note) of the Marquis of Xubu Gudu, who rebelled a few years ago, that is, his wife.

If it weren't for the fact that the Qiulin clan was one of the four major clans in the Xiongnu, with a strong force and a large number of people, and Tu Tu himself maintained his neutrality when many rebels supported the Marquis of Xubu Gudu, that is, Yu Fuluo's father, the in-law of this former rebel would not have escaped death.

Of course, although the capital crime was exempted, Tu Tu's original title was also stripped away and renamed the shameless King of Xiqi.

In this case, Tu Tu's rìzi will naturally not be happy. When I heard that the Han army broke into the grassland and slaughtered the tribes under its rule. He has been hesitant to send troops to exterminate it.

The reason was the confusion of the enemy's situation, and the Huns who fled back could not tell how many men and horses this Han army had, nor did they understand whose subordinates it was. Although the Han Dynasty was chaotic, the Xiongnu were also in great decline, and the Qiulin clan was in urgent need of cultivation, if they experienced another major defeat. There is no need to ask for guilt, and the Qiu Lin clan has to be removed from the Huns.

"If this damned Han army is exterminated, I will make the head of their leader into the most beautiful wine cup, and use it to serve the most honorable guests!"

While using a spell to vent his dissatisfaction, Tu Tu himself was also guessing the origin of this Han army, but he could rack his brains. I can't figure out where the opponent is coming from.

He was in a remote place in this state, but he also knew that the Han Dynasty, Li Dao and Guo Yan of Chang'an City were taking care of themselves, and Yuan Shao of Yecheng accepted Yu Fuluo's submission.

The Central Plains was in turmoil, and the Han people were too busy to take care of themselves, except for the most powerful Li Dao and Yuan Shao. Which prince still has the kung fu to make trouble at this time?

Originally, the Han family was located next to the court in Nandan and was used to monitor the Duliao generals of the Southern Xiongnu. It has long been eaten away by the Huns who have taken advantage of the civil strife in the Han Dynasty in recent years.

Or are the rebellious Bai Bo and Yellow Turban from Hedong County? But the Central Plains war horses are expensive, can these rebellious thieves afford a large force of cavalry?

Although the Qiulin clan is one of the four major clans of the Xiongnu. But now the entire Xiongnu are weakened, and the Qiu Lin clan is no exception, and the remaining warriors in the clan are not enough for him to squander Tutu, just like in the Subu Guduhou incident, Tutu's principle is to do nothing when he can't see the situation clearly, and wait and see what happens.

However, the most critical two cities, Baitu and Qiuzi, were also lost!

To the south of Baitu and Qiuzi is Fushi City, and hundreds of miles to the north is Meiji County of Xihe County, where Nandan Yuting is located! The political center of the Southern Xiongnu, where Yu Fuluo and the Que clan and children of the Xian King lived!

Since the Southern Xiongnu went south to join the Han Dynasty, the Han Emperor placed them in the Hetao area, and the Southern Xiongnu royal court has always been located in Meiji.

For Tu Tu, the fall of the two cities of Qiuzi and Baitu is undoubtedly a big bad news.

Relying on the city strong, I am not afraid that this Han army of unknown origin will go south to attack Fushi, but I am afraid that they will continue to go north regardless of life and death in the harsh winter, disturbing the royal court! If they don't have any strength at all, let this army pass through the territory under their jurisdiction and go straight to the central court of the Huns, no matter whether they succeed or not, they will not be used to deal with it after the return of Fuluo, and the left and right Xian kings and various departments will not be able to spare him, the unpopular king of Xiqi!

The messenger who informed the left and right Xian kings had already been dispatched, and he was now counting on the two lords to return to the previous one, and the Han army that suddenly appeared would not cause him a big trouble.

The only consolation is that the middle of winter is approaching, and in a climate that can freeze people and livestock into ice cubes, this Han army should also stop for a while, right? Not a lot of words

No matter how suspicious Tu Tu was, in the early winter morning, thousands of majestic knights wearing masks had suddenly appeared outside the city of Fushi in the face of the biting cold wind.

The roar of the war horse's stamping on the ground came earlier than the line of sight, and as the sound of the trumpet pierced the silence of early winter, the city of Fushi was immediately awakened and boiled.

The Han army finally did not choose to risk death to go north, which undoubtedly made Tu Tu breathe a sigh of relief.

The county seat of Fushi was originally the seat of the county, although it is now somewhat dilapidated, and most of the warriors have been singled out, but there are still more than 3,000 families of the Hun Qiulin clan living inside, and there are still 3,000 horsemen left behind, which will never be a good bone to gnaw.

Defeat them, and maybe your fate can be changed?

When Tu Tu rushed to the city wall, he finally saw with his own eyes the black-armored Han army that was causing trouble for him.

The men and horses are majestic and neat, and the two big men are waving in the cold wind of "whirring", and the two knights holding high the flag must be full of cracks in their faces, ears and hands, but they still stand steadily, and the flagpole does not have the slightest deviation.

On a black-background flag, two crossed silver iron halberds shimmered with cold light, as if they were living creatures; On the other side, there is a large Chinese character "Xu" embroidered.

As a Xiongnu nobleman, Tu Tu also knew the Han language, but from the two banners of the Han army, he still couldn't see the origin of the other party, this was not any army he knew.

The men and horses of the Han army seen in front of him are not as many as the warriors of the Qiu Lin clan who defend the city at their own time, so they dare to attack the city of Fushi? Or is there still someone behind them?

As far as the eye can see, the frost and whiteness on the grassland are connected together, and there is no end in sight.

The Han army under the city first set up camp tents from a distance, and then marched forward.

Whether it's camping or marching. They are all neat and orderly.

The Han army under the city stood solemnly in the wind, and it was very quiet. The Huns in the city bent their bows and arrows, and watched and watched, but there was not much noise, and there was no sound in front of the two armies, only the hurricane blew the banner and kept "popping".

Tu Tu was still suspicious, and when the formation was over, two horsemen in the Han army under the city galloped out side by side. Riding a horse fifty steps away from the city wall, facing hundreds of arrows in the cold light at the head of the city, all turned a blind eye, a stout man with a long beard burst out and shouted: "The pawn of the Henan Dangkou army is here, and anyone in the city dares to fight?" ”

The north wind hunts, and the sound is not too clear. Tu Tu even guessed before he understood what he meant.

Henan Dangkou Army? Deng Ji's centaurs?

No matter how much he was squeezed out, Tu Tu still knew this name, knew about the battle of the party five years ago, knew that Shan Yu had clashed with him several times, and knew that Deng Ji was originally a part of Montenegro, but he later voted for the imperial court, and the territory was near Luoyang, and there was a Hedong County in the middle!

Tu Tu never thought that the other party would actually wade through mountains and rivers. Sent troops from afar to find the bad luck of the Huns.

Most of the Huns on the city wall could not understand Chinese. The usefulness of another knight in the city was evident, and he repeated the words of the previous man aloud in the Hun language.

"Wow!"

Riding alone to challenge the warriors of the city?

The Southern Xiongnu had been attached to the Han dynasty for nearly 150 years. Although it is very weak, the wolf in the bones will never be wiped out, the world is in chaos, it seems that the situation of the Han people is even more unbearable, and now in the Huns' homes, who does not have a few Han slaves? How dare this Han army be so arrogant? This is a provocation to the Hun warriors, to the descendants of the wolves!

Before Tu Tu could make a decision, the city wall was already boiling and clamoring.

"My king, please let me go out and kill him!" Several Hun warriors standing beside Tutu immediately shouted loudly.

Qu Ya, known as the first warrior of Qiulin, roared angrily: "I will make his head into a drinking utensil that I usually use after my horse's stock!" ”

Although there are not many warriors in the city, but the Han soldiers and horses under the city are not as many as their own, Tu Tu is not so panicked, although I heard rumors that Deng Ji's soldiers and horses are not under the Huns, but as long as their own army is not out of the battle, in the wilderness, what is there to fear? The Han people dared to go to the city of Fushi to call a battle, if they should not fight, and fall into their own brave name, who is willing to obey the rear people? How dare the Qiulin clan be called one of the four major clans of the Xiongnu?

Since he couldn't let him show off his might outside, Tu Tu thought about it, put away his usual cautiousness, and sent out a guard warrior beside him.

"Alas!"

Qu Ya, who didn't get a chance to play, wailed with the others.

The closed city gate slowly opened, and the Xiongnu rode out of the city to meet the battle, and the two Han horsemen retreated slightly to give way to the field, and the knight who acted as an interpreter retreated directly back into the team, leaving only the chariot millet present.

"Boom!"

The Hun warriors held the meteor hammer in their hands, and the two halberds in their hands were thirty zhang apart, and the language was incomprehensible, so they could only look at each other, and there was no nonsense.

Almost at the same time, the drums of the Han army sounded, the horns of the bulls on the city walls sounded, and both horsemen rushed towards each other.

The horse's hooves trampled on the frost, and the two knights quickly lifted their horses and approached quickly. Above and below the city, thousands of eyes stared at this scene, waiting for the outcome of the battle.

The sound of the horse's hooves sounded rapidly, and the two sides were getting closer and closer, and they could clearly see the beards on each other's faces, ten zhang, five zhang, and one zhang!

"Whew!"

"Kill!"

At the moment of the hand-to-hand fight, both of them let out a strange scream, and then the two horses missed, and the big iron halberd in the right hand of the chariot Huang swung away the meteor hammer, and the left hand crossed strangely, and the cold light flashed, and it had pierced into the body of the Hun warrior.

The war horse galloped forward far away, and the horse's body tilted to the side, and it fell off the horse with a "bang".

Throwing off the meteor hammer wrapped around the right halberd, Che Huang turned around and dismounted, cut off the head of the half-dead Hun warrior on the ground, carried it in his hand, and then mounted his horse and held it high to the head of the city: "Who dares to come and fight again?" ”

There was no need for an interpreter, and the Huns in the city understood what he meant.

"Qu Ya, you go!" This Han man dared to provoke, and sure enough, he was brave, seeing that all the people around him were screaming angrily and asking for battle, Tu Tu didn't want to lose his own warriors anymore, and immediately said: "If you can't win with strength and martial arts, win him with a bow and arrow!" ”

Qu Yak is the first warrior of the Qiu Lin clan, not to mention his strength, the most commendable skill is his archery.

The city gate opened again, and the canal yak came out with a spear. The people on the city walls, who had great faith in him, cheered incessantly.

Language barrier. Like last time, no nonsense, confrontation, drumming bullhorns, charge!

Fighting horses and fighting a few times, the two of them have similar martial arts and strength, and they can only fight to a draw. Take the bow in your hand and turn around and shè.

Hearing the sound of the bowstring, Che Huang was taken aback, and hurriedly bent over the saddle, but he was a step too late, and only gave way to the vital point. The arrow was on his right arm, and the right halberd was unsteady for a while, and he fell out of his hand.

"Oh ha!"

The Han army was all frightened, but the city was overjoyed, chanting and cheering in unison, Qu Ya pulled the horse's head, and chased with a spear, but the two horses were still four or five zhang away. Suddenly I heard the sound of "whew". A cold light greeted him, and it was the small halberd on the saddle that the chariot reflexively threw out in danger.

But the ditch yak is also good. Stretching out his hand and pulling the reins, the horse immediately stood upright and blocked the blow for his master.

However, the small halberd hit the horse's neck, and it actually injured the artery, and a large stream of blood gushed out.

The yak fell to the ground, unable to stand up, and the chariot had already returned from his horse. The first warrior of the Chulin clan was still crawling on the ground and struggling, only to feel that it was suddenly dark in front of him, and two huge horses' hooves faced him, and his chest had been trampled down fiercely.

Thousands of pounds of power kicked down, no matter what kind of Qiulin number one warrior, flesh and blood can't resist it.

Jumping off his mount and shutting down the head of the first warrior of the Chulin clan, both of which were hung in the saddle of his own saddle, the wounded chariot slowly returned to the battle.

Looking at the Che Huang gradually moving away, the Hun men were angry and ashamed, but no one was speechless - defeated by Wu Yong, there was nothing to say!

The city wall was dumbfounded, but there were 300 forwards in the Han army who slowly stepped forward and came out of the formation, and the interpreter galloped to the city again, speaking in a loud voice in Xiongnu.

This time, the Han army no longer sent a single fighting array, but invited three hundred warriors in the city to go out of the city to fight.

Knowing that the comer is not good, but it is still the same truth, if the same force does not dare to go out of the city to fight, it will be a joke among the descendants of the wolf.

Tu Tu finally understood what it meant to ride a tiger in the Han language, if he didn't agree with his sons to fight at this time, he wouldn't have to be troubled by others, and he wouldn't be spared in the family first.

This time, the three hundred Han army cavalry was led by Xu Huang himself, and not a single auxiliary soldier was wanted, all of them were veteran warriors who had been in battle for a long time, and when the city gate was opened, the three hundred Huns picked by Tu Tu Jīng rode out of the city, and the two armies fought, but half an hour of effort was slaughtered.

None of the 300 Hun warriors survived, but the Han army was only 30 or 40 horsemen, which was undoubtedly another shame for the Hun warriors in the city of Fushi.

After shaking enough majesty, Xu Huang and the others swaggered under the city to treat the wounded soldiers and returned to the camp to rest.

The interpreter stepped forward and shouted again, and the Han army needed to rest and return to fight.

Such a show of power, with a momentum that does not take the warriors in the city in his eyes at all, this is **naked humiliation!

Second, the gate of Fushi was opened, Tu Tu personally led three thousand warriors out of the city to the death, and Xu Huang's thousands of Dangkou troops were strangled and killed, Han Hao, Zhou Yi, Cao Xìng and others led thousands of horsemen to kill, beheaded more than a thousand, Tu Tu and the remnants fled back to the city.

Then it is to continue to provoke and invite battles!

Every rì single head one or two formations, and then a group fight of more than 100 people, the Huns always lose more than win, and then be humiliated after defeat, only the Huns in the city are irritable and crazy, Tu Tu can't be suppressed, and after fighting eight rì, there are less than 2,000 warriors in the city, everyone in the Qiulin tribe is frightened, and no one dares to mention the city to fight, and this invitation to fight has to end.

The Xiongnu no longer went out of the city to meet the second rì, Jia Kui led more than 30,000 foot soldiers, surrounded the skin, and broke the city of skin, which lacked jīng strong and morale had fallen.

Note: Que's, Yinyan Branch, Xiongnu Shan Yu and the king's wives and concubines are all called Que's, there are a variety of titles, seen in the history books of the Da Que Clan, the Second Que Clan, the Fifth Que Clan, etc.
